Shastri has been paid an amount of Rs 18937500.00 as professional fees for the period of 18.04.18 to 17.07.18. Looking at the numbers, it can be computed that he draws a salary of around Rs 63 Lakh monthly, which makes him one of highest paid coaches.

In case of Dravid, his contract was renewed by BCCI for a period of two years. He will continue to be with the team till 2019. His contract might be extended again once his tenure as the coach ends.
